Hello - I've been lurking for a while. I joined the site after I realized I was making a somewhat spontanious decision to join vintage Chevy truck ownership club. I've been a 66' Mustang owner for past 12 years...so this will be interesting - ha! I've learned a lot just from reading through various forums...reading the reader Bolt stories and checking out various links offered up by stovebolt.com. I look forward to being an active member.

A little about our latest addition to the family. It's a 1954 3100 std cab with 4 speed. Receipts that I inherited back to 1983 show it to have lived previously in Kansas & Colorado..don't know anything prior to that. It went through a restoration in 2006-07 which is holding up pretty good...though the color was changed from Transport blue to a "teal" color. I'm going to contact the shop that did the work (wheels of time - englwood CO)and see if they can confirm what color it was painted, as I'm not sure it's a 54' Chevy truck color. I need to repaint the tail gate and want to match.

Mechanically it needs to be gone through...it's not running right...suspect carb needs to be rebuilt at a minimum. Interior is presentable, but it wasn't painted in stock colors. PO hacked dash to put in AM/FM "8 track" player- ugh!...not sure what I can do about that.

I hope my link shows up...if it does...it's a pic of me and my 5 yr old daughter in the truck shortly after it arrived. She's looking forward to helping dad!

Cheers!

Congrats on getting hold of such a sound pickup. Really looks good and will be a hoot for a daily driver......but of coarse the little cutie in the seat with you takes top honors!!!

Welcome to the Stovebolt. Being active it the key. Sooo much stuff going on and sooo much to learn. Lots of great folks here and willing to share tons and tons of knowledge. Thanks for the pic and keep us posted.

I'd rather walk and carry a Chevy hub cap than ride in a Ferd.
